How to remove Apple Configurator Profile - iPad

On my iPad a supervision profile has been installed using Apple Configurator. Is there a way to remove this profile without restoring.
When I tried syncing my iPad to my computer a message came up, notifying my that my 'iPad is supervised with another computer and cannot be used with this computer.'
I belive this has occurred because of this supervison profile and I can't seem to remove this profile.
I don't have access to both the Apple Configurator application that was used to create it and the computer that it is supervised with.
I have tried recovery mode and a few other basic ways that could remove this.
I need a way to remove this profile without removing all my data or accessing the Apple Configurator itself.
Max.

Unfortunately, if you don't have access to the computer that the iPad was supervised with you won't be able to unsupervise it without resetting the device (and thus losing all of the apps and data).
The idea behind Supervising is that control lies with the person managing the devices (teacher, I.T. staff, etc), not the end user. In Supervision mode, the person managing the devices is "king" and has control of installing apps, configuration profiles, etc. When an iPad is initially Supervised, it is wiped clean of previous data, apps, and settings. This prevents a personal device from being supervised by another person without their knowledge. Once Supervised, it is no longer a "personal" device…it is managed. The same sort of thing happens when you unsupervise a supervised device…it deletes everything so that the manager is no longer "king" and the user regains all control by starting with a clean iPad without data, apps, or controlled settings.
You may want to try and manually back up as much as you can to services like Dropbox before resetting the device.
I know this is not the answer you want to hear, but I hope it helps understand why it is what it is. Good luck.

    I am trying to use apple configurator with ipads. I have been successful with preparing and supervising all ipads but one. When preparing it in configurator, I receive an error that it is refreshed but with an error. Under supervise, I am not able to add apps. I have erased all content to start over but this does not work either

    Are you trying to restore a backup, or just sync some apps? Do you have profiles installed on the device?
    Have you plugged the ipad into iTunes, and did a fresh install? I'm assuming the device went through the prepare setup properly. You many have to unsupervise it first, then plug it into iTunes to wipe it completely.
    I'd then do each step seperately. Prepare it, then install 1 app, if that works, try another app, then maybe a profile.

  • Transferring an Apple Configurator Profile

    Hello, I am wondering if it is possible to transfer a Apple Configurator Profile from one iPad to another. For example, I have a wifi configuration file on one ipad, and need to get it to the other. Is there any way to transfer it without connecting it to the original apple configurator computer where the profile was made/put on the original device? Is it possible to use iTunes, iFunBox or my computers file explorer?
    I am sorry if this is the wrong category. Moderator please put it in the right one if it is not. This is the most relevant category I could find.
    Thank You

    HI Shi,
    1) Material serial number removed procedure as follows.
    Using T-Code MM02-change  material code to the respective plant(6000),storage location,sales org and then give input data to the material view screen basic data1, basic data2...... In the view Plant data / Stor.2 input screen General plant parameters options Serial no.profile - '0001', SerLevel - '1' data to be removed during change/edit of the material. After that doing MIGO for the material serial number should not asked and also not displayed.

  • HT201460 We currently have Ipads set up with an Apple Configurator profile and the removal password has been lost.  What options do we have to remove or alter the profile?

    We have tried to alter the profile to push out a different password and to push out no password, but the the new settings do not copy over to the Ipad when connected via usb cable.
    Any ideas?

    You can try to reset and configure the iPad as a new device.
    Have a look at recovery mode and DFU mode.

  • How can I copy Apple Configurator profiles?

    I'm trying to maintain two different profiles with 60+ wireless access point "payloads" and I can't seem to load both of them at the same time because:
    "This Configuration Profile already exists. Do you want to replace it? Another version of this Configuration Profile ('<profilename>') already exists in the Library. Replacing it will overwrite its current contents."
    I've tried editing a copy with a different name and identifier, but that doesn't seem to work and I'm not going to re-enter 64 wi-fi ap passwords.

    Here are some replies I made to other users in the past that might help you. I hope these links lead to the correct posts.

  • How do I integrate Configurator and iPad Electronic Flight Bags with applications that utilize a third-party license and subscription that is outside of iTunes?

    I am the EFB (Electronic Flight Bag) Manager for a small aviation company that are using 10 iPad with Retina Display as approved in-cockpit EFBs.  Our plan is to configure and manage these iPad EFBs with Apple Configurator 1.3.  We also use 2 third-party applications for charts, aviation weather, and other aviation functions that depend on a seperate license and subscription with the vendor outside of iTunes.  What I am finding through my new education in Configurator is that there does not seem to be a way to maintain the subscription status with those two applications.  Is there a way to isolate those two programs from Configurator control?  Better yet, is there a way to integrate them with Configurator without losing the subscription status and loss of huge amounts of data that are on a regular, FAA regulatory update schedule?  Configurator is awesome at managing iTunes managed applications and is perfect for our company.  I need to figure out how to make Configurator work with a subscription-based application.  Please help!

    Here is what is surmise reading ForeFlight web site.
    There is the app and the data.
    You manage the app through configurator or some other MDM.   The acquiring and paying for the data is independ of the configurator. You can buy the data through the app or online.  You may want to buy online. This way you can do the buying independent of the ipad. Once you have purchased, the app will download the data.  You may have to tell it to procedure with download panel.
    Some people use configurator to install mdm app then do the rest of the configuration from MDM.  This allows wifi updates of configuration.
    You end up with managing apps from MDM. You manage with your data from from the online account.  You enter appropriate password on each ipad to gain access to the data. App will download your data.  My need to tell it what to download in app.
    How do I buy a subscription?
    Purchasing a subscription is fast and easy! You can purchase a subscription online or inside the app using your iTunes account.
    To purchase a subscription inside the app, launch ForeFlight Mobile and then tap the 'Account' icon. You'll see a list of available plans to purchase in the 'Subscription Plans' table. Tap the one you want to buy. Follow the instructions for entering your email address and iTunes password. When the purchase is complete, you'll receive confirmation inside the app and immediately be able to continue using ForeFlight Mobile.
    To purchase a subscription online, visit our secure online ordering page. You'll be asked to choose a plan and enter your credit card information. After your purchase is complete, you'll receive an email with a password to sign into the app on your phone or iPad.

  • HT3529 How to remove iMessage from my iPad?

    I hate iMessage and want to remove it from my iPad. Does anyone know how to do this?

    You can turn it off but you cannot use messaging as a window prompts you to enter your Apple Id and turn it back on.  Once it was installed on my iPad, I can no longer send text messages to anyone that has not registered for the iMessage service.

  • Apple Configurator with iPad Air

    I am using Apple configurator 1.5 to deploy iPad 2 with 4G and without and iPad Airs with 4G.
    I created backups of each model and I’m only having an issue with the iPad Airs. I get an  error “ unable to activate ”.  Apple configurator will update the devices to the newest OS and reset the iPads but it won’t apply any settings from the backup.
    Any help would be great.

  • Apple Configurator: Profile Enrollment Trouble

    I am having trouble installing the Standard Enrollment Profile on a set of iPad's. I get this error when I try to install Standard Enrollment Profile on them through Apple Configurator. I was wondering if any of you knew a fix or workaround to this problem? Thanks!

    Based on limited experience with multiple profiles, it appears that the most restrictive profile takes precedence.  For example, if one restricts the deleting and installing of apps and the other one allows for the deleting of apps and allows for installing apps a device with both profiles will not allow apps to be installed or deleted.

    You just click the Product (as highlighted in grey)
    Click the [Remove Product] button centerstage - the appears VERY briefly beside the button
    one responds to the challenge "Are you sure..." by clicking [Remove Product] once more
